Can You Hear?

Tuesday. Mark8: 14-26.

What a thoughtful, wise Friend Jesus is! He gladly hears our prayer for bread and bed, shelter of roof, and strength of body. But he’s always reaching through these things to the higher, deeper, better things, teaching our minds, and wooing our hearts. Theres a voice speaking to us in the common things we receive today. He’s the wise man who hears and opens up his heart and life for the better things.
